DTC P0983 (60): ADVANCED DIAGNOSTICS

DTC P0983: OPEN IN SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE D CIRCUIT 

Fig. 219: Shift Solenoid Valve D Circuit Diagram 

Fig. 220: Shift Solenoid Valve Driving Signal Combination Table 

General Description 

When shift solenoid valves A and D are turned ON, the hydraulic pressure circuit opens. When shift 
solenoid valves B and C are turned OFF, the hydraulic pressure circuit opens. The hydraulic pressure circuit 
supplies/discharges hydraulic pressure to/from each clutch according to the combination of the ON/OFF 
status of those valves and the shift valves. The powertrain control module (PCM) commands the driver 
circuit to turn on the shift solenoid valve. The circuit diagnoses malfunctions such as a circuit short or open, 
and sends back a return signal during the PCM's command. A malfunction is detected when the return signal 
does not match the PCM command to turn OFF the shift solenoid valve, and a DTC is stored.

Enable Conditions 

ENABLE CONDITIONS 

Malfunction Threshold 

The return signal does not match the command to turn OFF shift solenoid valve D for at least 1 second. 

Driving Pattern 

Start the engine, shift to the N position, and wait for at least 1 second. 

Diagnosis Details 

Conditions for illuminating the MIL 

When a malfunction is detected, the MIL comes on and the DTC and the freeze frame data are stored in the 
PCM memory. 

Conditions for clearing the MIL 

The MIL will be cleared if the malfunction does not recur during three consecutive trips in which the 
diagnostic runs. 

The MIL, the DTC, and the freeze frame data can be cleared by using the scan tool Clear command or by 
disconnecting the battery.

Fig. 221: Intake Manifold Tuning Sensor Output Characteristics 

General Description 

The intake manifold tuning (IMT) system controls engine output by selecting either long or short intake 
runner lengths. The system consists of the IMT valve, the IMT actuator, and the powertrain control module 
(PCM). The IMT actuator is attached to the intake manifold and it includes the motor and the Hall-effect-IC 
position sensing unit. The PCM actuates the motor, which operates the IMT valve. When the IMT valve is 
closed, the long runner is selected, increasing torque at low engine speed. When the IMT valve is open, the 
short runner is selected, increasing torque at high engine speed. A Hall-effect-IC position sensing unit is 
integrated with the motor to provide precise open/close feedback to the PCM. The IMT actuator sends a 
long runner return signal to the PCM when the IMT valve is closed, and it sends a short runner return signal 
when the IMT valve is open. 

If the PCM receives no closed return signal when it sends a close command, or if it receives no open return 
signal when sending an open command to the IMT actuator, for a specified time, it detects a malfunction 
and stores a DTC.

Enable Conditions 

ENABLE CONDITIONS 

Malfunction Threshold 

When the PCM sends a close (long runner) command, no long runner return signal is received for at least 7 
seconds. 

Driving Pattern 

1. Start the engine. Let it idle until the radiator fan comes on.  

2. Let the engine idle for at least 7 seconds.  

Diagnosis Details 

Conditions for illuminating the MIL 

When a malfunction is detected during the first drive cycle, a Temporary DTC is stored in the PCM 
memory. If the malfunction recurs during the next (second) drive cycle, the MIL comes on and the DTC and 
the freeze frame data are stored. 

Conditions for clearing the MIL 

The MIL will be cleared if the malfunction does not recur during three consecutive trips in which the 
diagnostic runs. 

The MIL, the DTC, the Temporary DTC, and the freeze frame data can be cleared by using the scan tool 
Clear command or by disconnecting the battery.
